Review of Superman/Batman: Apocalypse (2010) by Roxanne O — 16 Sep 2010

Looooved it. Been waiting months for this DVD to come out! And I was very pleased that the studio got Kevin Conroy and Tim Daly to do the voices of Batman and Robin. I've only ever heard one voice actor pull off Batman as well as Conroy (Bruce Greenwood); I have yet to hear anyone come close to Tim Daly's Superman.

Andre Braugher was great as Darkseid, he has such a booming and imposing voice. The ONLY problem with films like this is that they make me wish there were more episodes of Justice League Unlimited. My only other problem was the explanation of Supergirl's origins.

In Superman the animated series, she was from a planet neighboring Krypton and she actually escaped with family members in stasis who died, leaving her behind in a ship. In this film, she's sent off in a ship just like Supe, but Superman is clearly older than her, so unless Krypton postponed blowing up for a good 20 years, I call "blooper.

" Other than that, loved the "Gotham Knight"/"Animatrix" style animation, the action was sooooo good; just two thumbs up!
